This valuable building is currently home to the municipal academy of visual arts. The noble fief of Meylandt has a long history and was first mentioned in 1385, when it was called 'Hof ter Boeckt'. 'Milandt' is first mentioned in 1603. In 1715 the estate came into the possession of Knight Arnold de Theux through marriage. He has the mansion converted into a luxurious castle. In 1842 it was significantly modified by Minister of State Bartelémy-Théodore Count de Theux de Meylandt. The current form, in neo-classical style, dates from the last renovation by his son Albert Count de Theux de Meylandt in 1907. The municipality of Heusden bought the estate in 1959. The park is freely accessible.
